I have recently come across some links from the villages of Silverton, Broad Clyst and Willand in Devon of a family which seems to use two surnames - Brimager and Yandell - each of these names has variations - Brimidger/Brimeger and Yondle/Yondell.
Some entries on the LDS website list members with either Brimager/Brimidger some with Yandell/Yondle and some list the surnames as 'Brimager or Yandell' and 'Yandell or Brimager'
Has anyone else come across this link and come any part way to sorting out who is who and where they are connected.
Yours - very confused
Debbie

Hi - if I am with the same family group as you I found John Brimager/Brimidger married Sarah Rendell in 1747 - in Silverton. To add to the confusion some of the Brimagers changed their surname to Birmingham. I wonder what happened at the time to need to use different surnames?
I have been looking at the Brimager family as it links into my family tree so if you think I can help you, or maybe you can help me, please get in touch.
Regards

I feel sure that this must be the same family as the ones I have also come from this area.
However I do not have in my details, so far, the John that you mention. It may be that I have come across this person but have not known how he links to my detail.
I would be willing to give you what I have
Regards
Debbie

The link I have into the Brimager family is as follows:
Samuel & Agnis Brimager/Brimidger had 3 children that I know of:
John 1720
Samuel 1722
Christopher 1727
John 1720 married Sarah Rendell/Yendell in 1747 and they had 4 children that I know of:
Sarah 1755
Anthony 1788
Robert 1762 (who possibly married Ann Turner in 1783)
James 1764
Samuel 1722 possibly married an Elizabeth and there may be one son
John 1756
Christopher 1727married Mary Chamberlaine in 1753 and they had at least 9 children
Sarah 1755-1759
Mary 1757-1828 married John Hunt
Robert 1759 possibly changed his name from Brimager to Birmingham - married Elizabeth Shapley
Thomasin 1761-1850 married William Melluish
Ann 1764 married Alexander Webber
Emlyn 1766
Christopher 1769-1846 changed his name from Brimager to Birmingham - married Penelope
John 1772-1850 possibly changed his name from Brimager to Birmingham - married Sally Warren
Agnis 1776
I have further family members attached to some of the above, but am I making any connections with your tree?
How does this compare to anything you have researched, and does this tie into your family details?
Regards

Hi
I am Ashely Brimager and I am currently living in the U.S (California) and am looking for records in the UK. I have heard some confusing stories from family members about the orgins and was *thrilled* to see the name pop up in the search! Apparently the name is very hard to find!
I am only slightly familiar with the UK and have never been to Devon County? What are some resrouces there?
Thank you!

Hi Asheley, delighted you have made contact.
How far have you got so far with your family search? I have so far filled in the family tree using internet available information, but at some time I will go to Devon to find out more in Parish Records. I have Census records every 10 years from 1841 available via ancestry.co.uk but have used familysearch.org as well. Some Brimagers changed their surname to Birmingham for some reason, and I have details of some of the people who did that. My connection is in Devon so I have searched in as many places as possible without actually visiting Devon to continue the research. My email address is MODERATOR COMMENT: email address removed to avoid spam and other abuses. Please use personal message system to share email addresses. Thank You so if you want to send me information you have already found I can see if it ties in with what I have. Look forward to hearing from you.

Hello again Craftycorner
I am sorry that i appear not to have replied to your last message - I don't know what happened to make me miss that.
My connection (to be accurate my husband's connection) is to Thomasin who married William Melhuish. One of their 8 children was Sarah Melhuish who married John Rogers, of Broadwey, Weymouth, Dorset.
I do not know where they got married, but all the children were christened in Broadwey.
John and Sarah were my husband's gt gt grandparents.
Hello to Ashley - hope the three of us may be able to make some links. I have also so far got most of my Brimager/Brimidger/Birmingham info from the internet - but also have had contact with the OPC for Silverton, Devon.
To you both my e mail is MODERATOR COMMENT: email address removed to avoid spam and other abuses. Please use personal message system to share email addresses. Thank You
Regards
Debbie
